Literature:
C. Hofstede de Groot, A Catalogue Raisonné of the Most Eminent Dutch Painters of the Seventeenth Century, vol. III, London 1910, p. 56, no. 178 (as Frans Hals)
The present painting was considered to be a portrait of Nicholas Edgar, Glenham Magna by Frans Hals and it was published accordingly (see literature).
Sabine Craft-Giepmans and Rudi Ekkart identified the painting as a work by the West Frisian artist Waben. Craft-Giepmans noted that whilst the elegant pose of the bent arm with the back of the hand resting at the sitters hip is a typical compositional feature of Frans Hals or Johannes Verspronck, this style was emulated by the mid 1630s by Amsterdam portraitists and also adapted by artists of West-Frisian region. Whilst Rudi Ekkart proposed Jan van Teylingen (1592-1654) as a possible artist of the Glemham portrait, Sabine Craft-Giepmans has suggested Jacques or Jacob Waben since the Glemham portrait fits better stylistically into the known oeuvre of Jacques or Jacob Waben.
The Westfries Museum in Hoorn keeps a number of comparable paintings by Waben. This attribution to Waben makes the traditional identification of the sitter very unlikely. The portrait most likely does not depict a member of the Edgar Family but rather a wealthy citizen of Hoorn.
We are grateful to Sabine Craft-Giepmans and Rudi Ekkart for their help in cataloguing the present painting
